  I Love My Aspen - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By James P. - July 6 - 4:08 pm

  This is a great SUV. Lots of interior room and a very comfortable ride.It has a very upscale exterior design and I love the chrome accents. Would highly recommend the 28J package. I have gotten 17.5 mpg so far with still less than 1000 miles driven.

  Love my Big SUV - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By Linda Krapish - June 19 - 1:48 pm

  I bought this vehicle for the safety of having a big car, not for the gas mileage. My family feels safe driving down the Interstate.

  Great!! - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By kaptain - June 3 - 9:54 pm

  I purchased the signature series 2008 with a Hemi. I love it! I also own a Concorde and the gas mileage isnt that much of a difference but the space is! Rides great and handles really well. Love that it looks classy and not everyone is driving one!(i.e. Tahoes and Expeditions!) I absolutely love it.

  Great SUV - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By MD Cain - June 1 - 8:16 am

  Got it in Light Sandstone and it looks awesome. Dont understand all the people who worship at the alter of " all Japanese Brands are great and all American Brands are junk ." We had a 2004 Durango and never had a minutes trouble with it. Like some of the other posters I dont understand why Chrysler doesnt promote it more. You see a lot of commercials about Fords voice recognition system but the My Gig unit blows that away and they never promote it! I know these vehicles are not selling well due to high gas prices but the upside for us is we got it for $10,300 off of MSRP. It ended up costing less than our Durango did 4 years ago which had way less features. Great vehicle.

  Nice SUV but read this before you buy? - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By Ms. Frugal - May 28 - 2:57 pm

  I really do like my 2008 Aspen but I wish I would have noticed a few things before I purchased it. #1, the sunroof does not go all the way back as in flush. Therefore, it causes a bit of noise that will require a wind deflector. #2, The Antenna, I dont know how I missed this but being as though none of my past models had it, it just slipped by. But, why in 2008 are there still visible antennas? Its really annoying going through a car wash! #3, Even though it is an SUV, it SUCKS gas like crazy. I did get the Hemi engine but I dont stomp on the pedal at all. A full tank of gas gets you about 350-375 miles, so I guess its not to bad but dont forget the 5.7 engine requires 89 octane gas!!!

  Aspen Signature Series - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By pg - May 20 - 3:35 pm

  Got the 2008, love it, love it, love it. I traded in an explorer (which I thought I loved). Wow, what a wonderful suv. I bought the signature series (w/all the bells/whistles). Gorgeous two tone leather. I live out in the country and drive about 100 miles a day...what a comfortable ride. The radio, mp3 player, back up camera--all nice. the room for the kids in the back (big and roomy-no one touches anyone). The gas is what I expected (avg 16.3 mpg) Of course I would love better gas (but for what I am getting, I can live w/the gas price). Would recommend to anyone. This SUV rocks.

  Resale Writeoff - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By Vandada - May 11 - 8:30 am

  Purchased a 2007 model in Jan 08. The vehicle included most options, but the smaller 8 cyl. Sticker was $41k. Saw the 2008 in the dealership when in for first service in April, 08 Liked it because of enhanced features on most options. Thought Id trade out and knew Id get hammered on the trade. I didnt expect to get slaughtered. Dealer quoted me a trade value of $23,500, or 12,500 less than purchase price 3 months earlier, and was only willing to cut sticker price on 08 by $4,000. When people realize that these pigs not only guzzle gas, but theyll guzzle your equity, we wont be seeing many more.

  Best SUV on the road - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By jan - April 22 - 5:11 pm

  This is the perfect SUV. I have the j package with the hemi, 20 wheels and all the extras. It fits all of us with comfort and ease. One of us is 65 one 511 and one jumbo sized. I got the cool vanilla exterior color an it looks beautiful. I love the heated seats, back up camera, and gig touch screen radio and gps.

  Chryslers Best Kept Secret - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By Linda - April 21 - 7:28 am

  After 6 months of researching all of the crossovers, I stumbled upon this great find. My previous car was an Expedition rode like a truck. This is a smooth, comfortable, classy vehicle. All the bells and whistles you can ask for and absolutely affordable. Plenty of leg/head room for adults comfort measures for the kids. Navigation system and media center is a great perk! Able to download CDs to hard drive and eliminate clutter in the car. Looking forward to taking it on long trips!
